Based on the game's steam achievements I'm only at chapter 5/16. Things are going to get horrendously ugly if they keep escalating at this same pace.

Interesting analysis how Spotify is screwed with their business model.

TLDR of TLDR: Spotify is forbidden by labels from signing artists directly, and all Spotify’s competitors have a bigger business to bundle music into, and can afford losing money on music.

I started up Meakashi a while back. Higurashi games always take a while to grab me and I think I'm at that point now with this one. Shion develops a crush on Satoshi but then turns shockingly unsympathetic towards them when the abuse they take from their aunt and uncle starts to worsen.

Deutsche Bahn is reliable in nothing but its own unreliability. Not enough expletives to describe. Every time I need to get somewhere.

Note to myself: remember to do not waste an hour debugging why a #TailwindCSS class is not applied, starting digging into plugins etc when the solution is: you cannot always test it only from the development tools.

You need at least one reference of the class already used to have it in the bundle! 🤦‍♂️

Any dehumanization of Palestinians or Jews on my page get an immediate block. I'm a human rights lawyer. My standard is justice. I do not accept dehumanization of any people.

And—I demand international human rights law accountability of all Governments and all peoples.

Justice requires it.

It is 2034. Over carryout, I am boring my teenage son by explaining that when I was young, you could just buy something without surrendering personal info, consenting to ads, or being asked to take a survey.

He tells me how old I am, and says he doesn't like my stories.

The numerous AIs listening to our conversation misinterpret this as dissatisfaction with the meal, and quietly put the names of the staff that made it on a list for layoffs next quarter.

My phone buzzes. I have a coupon.

Who's using #s390x?

AFAIK that platform has been dead for nearly 20 years now. And yet, Ubuntu seems to have native build machines for it.

You know how clothes look better on the model than they do when you try them on?

Well, fonts always look great on a website designed to show them off. But they usually don't look that great when you try them on.

29. The Menu (2022). I liked this a lot more than I expected. I thought it was gonna be standard cannibalism/grossout stuff but instead it focuses more on making fun of the overwrought theater of fine dining.

Yes, Private Eye is a UK-based satirical magazine. But when it matters, they often stop being funny and start telling it like it is. And in the current climate, this front-page splash was a brave move. 👏🏽

A surprising number of people still haven't figured out that Israel's goal in this war is to make Gaza unlivable and to force the Palestinians into Egypt (Sinai) forever, or, failing that, to shrink Gaza in half by removing Gaza's North half.

I recently modded my entire Steam Deck, replacing all the shell and button parts with transparent green plastic for a retro style.

This was a VERY difficult mod, requiring taking apart the entire Steam Deck piece by piece and putting it all back together. Took about 5 hours. Over a hundred screws, all different shapes and sizes, needed to use heat gun on screen and other parts, took apart heatsink, and much more.

Steam Deck is insanely well engineered and super repairable.

This is my victory. Despite everything, despite a side of human nature invading southern Lebanon and trying to eradicate my family before I was even born, they didn't manage to kill the most precious thing that I have: an innate understanding regarding the humanity and the drive to reason borne into all peoples.

That's what terrorists and murderers, be they Israeli or Palestinian, want to eradicate in the other side. That is when they win.

Don't give them victory over your spirit. (2/2)
